CNN’s Amanpour Asks Hillary Clinton If ‘Latent Racism’ Plays Into Obama’s Unpopularity

Hillary Clinton sat down with CNN’s Christiane Amanpour for a Town Hall interview on Wednesday, June 17  to promote her new book “Hard Choices.” The interview focused on a variety of domestic and foreign topics but it was Amanpour’s question to Clinton about racism towards President Obama that caught some attention. The CNN reporter wondered “ Senator Jay Rockefeller said recently and he suggested basically that some of the political opposition to President Obama could have something to do with the color of his skin. Do you agree with that? What do you think about that?” Video cross-posted here at NewsBusters.
